Haddock Jigging On Cape Cod

It's the early season on Cape Cod as we head to Stellwagen Bank in search of shoals of haddock in pursuit of sand eels with Hogy Pro Capt. Robert Lowell of Cape Cod Offshore Charters. Today's greasy calm seas make for a picturesque day of filming while Rob fills the cooler to stock up the freezer and match a batch of fresh fish tacos.

Gear List:

Rod: Shimano Terez MH Spinning

Reel: Shimano Saragosa 5000

Line: 30lb Powerpro

Leader: 40lb Fluoro

Lure: Hogy Lures 6.5oz Sand Eel Jig

TIPS:

1. Maintain lure contact with the bottom while slowly jigging with two to three foot rod sweeps upward.

2. Lightweight rod and reel outfits offer the most comfort while jigging for extended periods of time.

3. Light weight braided line will allow a much faster sink rate with your jigging presentation.
